gear box light came on wednesday night.

bit of fluid leak, solenoids have fouled up, my workshop has a new set waiting to go in, just have to wait till next week to pop by, what also sucks i have to go to ImportMonster to pick something up on tuesday, might test out the little car's roof racks haha.

but least im not looking over my should for cops like the rest of the skyline worry warts haha :wub:

undercover yO :D

LOL i can pretend to be an undercover and be at the back of the pack. when other cops spot me they will think im picking out my "pray" and will let me have the kill...lol

yeah get a lil antenna for the upper left window to make it look real :D

im in no real rush for it Ash, he just said i could get it tuesday. but now car is down, no real point. its only a front lip, it should ockey strap to my roof.

it no some time next week, thats for the offer though man :D

good man Matt, me too. i'll be in the little car leading the imports lol

You are more than welcome to come to my house and drive my car there :D (assuming you know why, time of the year :D)

I'm a maybe at this stage

trying to drive the car least as possible during this time of year

especially with the new wheels fitted, they are not particularly subtle

plus i also need to get my guards rolled, as im starting to ruin my tires when the tire hits the guard lip

i dont know how to get a pic from google maps up here so here is is in text.

Corner of Well's Road/ SPringvale road.

BIG car wash. if someone has the power and skill to get a pic would save alot of confusion. i was going to steal it from an old meet, but the events has been cleaned up real good.

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
